I Sure Hope Frank Alexander Lives Up To

Did you hear what the commentator just said?

"Luke has 10 tackles, but majority of those are downfield."

Tadaaaaaaa

 

I'm not arguing Luke hasn't been playing bad but what do you expect?  Who else do you expect them to focus on blocking?

I think this is definitely a year for Frank to show what he can do considering our issues on the line. We only have him for one more season anyway and we need to keep whatever DEs are being productive because they are young and we cant afford to keep dedicating draft picks to that position.

I think he could and it's because he will be an improvement over Horton.  Addison is 6'3 260 and is not much of rounded DE although can look really solid in spurts.  We like to have that 6'4/6'5 275 lber in there and that's what he provides.  Ealy is still developing/adjusting and Horton is a project.  Alexander could at least help generate more of a push for us off the snap next to Short.

    • Jamaree Salyer would be an excellent signing. I hope we are looking at him.
    • The Panthers are Pickett's 5th team in 5 years. Howell's next team will be his 5th. I don't think the league thinks that much of either of them. They're just warm bodies, at this point. 
    • 10 players I wouldn't mind the Panthers signing that are still available:  - CB Nate Hobbs (Packers): Was just released this morning. Could be a very solid nickel upgrade for us.  - CB Kader Kohou (Dolphins): Solid slot corner who shouldn't break the bank and could be an upgrade over Chau Smith-Wade.  - OT Jamaree Salyer (Chargers): Had an underrated year with the Chargers (68.2 PFF pass block grade, 61.5 run block grade) and is still young enough (25) to continue developing.  - OT Jawaan Taylor (Chiefs): Depending on price, could be a good short-term option at LT while we figure things out long-term.  - WR Jauan Jennings (49ers): If we're going to add a FA receiver, I think Jennings makes a lot of sense but the price may be a bit too high for a slot receiver.  - WR John Metchie III (Jets): A cheaper option at slot receiver who has experience playing with Bryce at Alabama. Low risk/high reward type signing.  - WR Calvin Austin III (Steelers): Likely an "in between" option relative to Jennings and Metchie, but another solid option in the slot.  - LB Leo Chenal (Chiefs): I think we'll target another starting ILB in the draft, but we could also opt to pair Chenal with Devin Lloyd and check that need off the list early.  - OC Matt Hennessy (49ers): Could be a decent stop-gap starter at center and solid depth if nothing else.  - OC Andre James (Chargers): Was a backup last year for the Chargers (for some reason; he couldn't have been worse than what they had starting) but was solid for the Raiders the year before.
